     XmSetFontUnit(Xm)                              UNIX System V



     NAME
          XmSetFontUnit - a function that sets the font unit value for
          a display.



     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/Xm.h>

          void XmSetFontUnit (display, font_unit_value)
               Display   display;
               int       font_unit_value;



     DESCRIPTION
          XmSetFontUnit provides an external  function  to  initialize
          font   unit   values.   Applications  may  want  to  specify
          resolution-independent data based on  a  global  font  size.
          This  function  must  be  called  before  any  widgets  with
          resolution-independent   data   are   created.    See    the
          XmNunitType  resource  description  in  the  man  pages  for
          XmGadget, XmManager, and XmPrimitive for more information on
          resolution independence.


          display     Defines the display for  which  this  font  unit
                      value is to be applied.

          font_unit_value
                      Specifies the value to be used in the conversion
                      calculations.   The  font unit value is normally
                      taken as the QUADWIDTH property  of  the  font;
                      however, the application can specify any integer
                      value.
